While there are some age-related scratches, there is no damage that would hinder playing, and the condition is good for a violin of this age. The sound post has been adjusted for this sale. The wood is well-dried, so it resonates beautifully. Accessories include a dedicated case. Please consider the case as for transportation only, as it is old. This item is rarely seen on the used market, so please consider this opportunity. Please check the photos carefully. Although it is a good quality item, please understand that it is a used item before purchasing.
